The Halo: The Master Chief Collection terminal trailer is a trailer for Halo: The Master Chief Collection. It was first shown at the 343 Industries panel at RTX 2014. It shows the style and story featured in the game's terminals. The terminals will once again be developed by Sequence.

The trailer depicts a target profile report concerning Thel 'Vadam, compiled by Jameson Locke sometime after 2553. The report details 'Vadam's personal history from the start of the Human-Covenant War to the glassing of Reach and beyond. The report was later accessed by the Master Chief.[1]
